Voted the "Best Outdoor Theater" in New York City by 'L' Magazine,
over even the Public Theater in Central Park, the Hudson Warehouse
was founded in 2004 by Nicholas Martin-Smith with the intention of
delivering the most vibrant, relevant, and engaging outdoor theatre
possible. The first season consisted of a single modest production of
The Tempest
which performed over two weeks in July. Our summer season of
classical theater has now expanded to three shows produced over the
summer months of June, July, and August.

Hudson Warehouse was a 2013 recipient of Goddard Riverside's "Good
Neighbor Award" in recognition of its "extraordinary deeds in
helping build a better community." In September of 2013, Hudson
Warehouse was invited to become the Resident Theater Company of
Goddard Riverside's Bernie Wohl Arts Center. With a winter home,
the Warehouse now has a five show, year-round season which also
includes both its 'Shakespeare in the Bar' and 'Writers-a-Go-Go'
contemporary play reading series.

In addition to the company's full season, we teach workshops of the
classics to high school students, bring our productions into schools
and colleges, offer our unique 'Hudson Warehouse Shakespeare
Workout,' and teach a play writing class to 4th
and 5th graders as part of the Goddard Riverside After School Program.

Our summer home is the Solders' and Sailors' Monument located along
the Hudson River in the heart of Riverside Park. It offers a
beautiful back-drop and the north patio lends itself to a natural
three-quarter thrust stage much like the one used by the actors at
the original Globe Theater.

At the core of the Warehouse is a community of artists committed to
presenting the classics in quality productions, made accessible to
not only the Upper West Side and the five boroughs of the City of New
York, but to people from as far away as New Zealand, and Taiwan,
Rotterdam and Jerusalem who make this unique theatre experience a
destination point during their visit to the city.

We are only able to continue to provide such wonderful, memorable
productions and lasting community work through the donations of our
friends, supporters and our generous audiences.

There are several perks which we can offer you for your donations which we
encourage you to discover. Click on our

work in improving the quality of life on the Upper West Side.
